> So writing off the criticism The issue I take is that the criticism is vague and outdated. "It was built in a week" is the only direct piece of criticism, which is simply no longer valid. The JS that was built in a week is long dead. In fact, the whole article is about how TS = good and JS = bad. Except that Javascript is valid Typescript. So every wart or issue that exists in JS also exists in TS, with the exception of a layer of type safety.
